FAQ
How do I compress a JPEG without losing too much quality?
Lower compression gradually and keep dimensions close to what you need. Resize Relay balances quality and size toward the 200KB target automatically.
Does this upload my JPEG anywhere?
No. The JPEG is compressed in your browser, so it never leaves your device.
Common situations for this workflow
Reducing a large camera JPG to a 200KB cap without converting the format.
Forms and inboxes that accept JPG but reject anything over 200KB.
Keeping JPG because the destination does not accept WebP or PNG.
Checklist before you upload
Stay in JPEG so the file stays compatible with the destination.
Lower dimensions before pushing quality too low on detailed JPGs.
Start from the highest-quality original to avoid stacking compression artefacts.
Tips to hit the target faster
Re-compressing an already-compressed JPEG repeatedly softens it, so start from the best copy you have.
If a 200KB JPEG looks too soft, reduce dimensions slightly and raise quality.
For a smaller file at the same clarity, WebP beats JPEG - but only if the destination accepts it.
